2013's all-bust fantasy football team

With the fantasy season now in our rear view, let's take one last look back at those players that broke our hearts. we'll focus on those players that disappointed us despite remaining healthy a majority of the season.

With the fantasy season now in our rear view, let's take one last look back at those players that broke our hearts. Since injuries are just part of the game we love, we'll focus on those players that disappointed us despite remaining healthy a majority of the season.

QB - Colin Kaepernick, San Francisco 49ers

Kaepernick donned covers of magazines and was deemed the next greatest quarterback by some analysts but 2013 just never quite came together. This season showed that Kaepernick was better at leading a real NFL team rather than your fantasy team.

After a slow start in Cleveland, Richardson was shipped to Indianapolis, where the teaming of his power running game with QB Andrew Luck's arm had fans dreaming of fantasy championship trophies. What we ultimately ended up with was Donald Brown's handcuff.

Heading into 2013 Nicks looked like a good bet to out perform his draft value. The talented wide receiver was heading into a contract year, a fact not lost on the savviest of fantasy players. Nicks was drafted as a top 20 wide receiver in a majority of leagues but as the bottom fell out on the Giants season, so did his value. If he remains on any re-draft roster, it's due to his name only.

Dishonorable mention: Dwayne Bowe.

TE - Jared Cook, St. Louis Rams

Outside of Jimmy Graham's dominance, very little separated the top 10 tight ends this season. Cook gets the dud of the year designation by tantalizing us with an explosion in Week 1, then proceeding to take the rest of the year off.

K - Garrett Hartley, New Orleans Saints

When you start the year as a dome kicker in a high octane offense and end the year as a free agent, you sir, were a dud.

DEF - Houston Texans

The Texans were drafted as a top three defense, but finished the year near the bottom of every league. It's hard to play defense when your offense is throwing pick sixes and starting Case Keenum. Expectations were high in the preseason, but the wheels ultimately came flying off instead.
